I use an open source project, find a bug, start googling and find a pull request with a fix. How to merge yourself?

A pull request usually contains a link to the author.
1. Go to the page of the author of the pull request
2. Find the one you are interested in in the list of repositories
3. In this repository, switch the branch to the one you need
4. Profit! Download Zip.
